Dear all,

note that there will be planned power outages concerning the Kontinkangas campus at the end of July. The estimated time is up to five hours. In Kieppi building (Aapistie 5A): Wed 30.7. klo 21-01, in Aapistie 5B: 29.7. 17-22 and in Aapistie 7: 30.7. 16-21, see the attached map with schedules. Be prepared. Please, inform your colleagues who might not be on the mailing lists.

This will have of course an effect on freezers, incubators, hoods, laminars and all instruments. Please, avoid unnecessarily opening of freezers and incubators. Most of us are then on a holiday, so those who are around, please check, if you hear alarms from instruments.  The ISS should check (have promised to) the -70 freezers that they start working after the outage.  The electric door locks should be working normally.

Letīs hope everything goes well! Unfortunately, there has not yet been any information from ISS in Patio about this.

Please, follow Patio, in case there will be changes.

 

Urgent, minor service requests directly to ISS facility maintenance by telephone.

The telephone numbers of facility maintenance are the following:

Oulu +358 200 155 00, (this is the national ISS center number)

 

Also https://patio.oulu.fi/en/services-and-instructions/facilities/facilities-maintenance/property-maintenance-and-servicing, for service request

 

Best regards,

Pirkko (leaving for the holidays)

Dear all,

note that there will be a power cut concerning the Kontinkangas campus at the end of July. The estimated time is up to five hours. In Kieppi building (Aapistie 5A): Wed 30.7. klo 21-01, in Aapistie 5B: 29.7. 17-22 and in Aapistie 7: 30.7. 16-21, see the attached map with schedules. Please, check whether this causes any special pre- and/or afterwork for the expensive and sophisticated instruments. In case a backup power is needed for the time , let me know, there will be some instruments available from ISS (only for very,very special need).

terv. Pirkko
